About this property

Creekside in the Smoky Mtns. has a rejuvenating quality. Something we all need!

Creekside is a tobacco free property located on 6 acres nestled in the Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina alongside Drymans Creek. We have just one rental unit, so booking a stay at Creekside, you will be the only guest. It is 800 square feet all on one level from your car to the door with bath and shower one step up. The unit has been remodeled on the lower level of our home overlooking Drymans Creek with a view of the mountains and a horse pasture . It has a covered deck and private entrance. It is most private and quiet. Listen to the serene sounds of the crystal clear water rushing over the rocks, take in the mountain view from the deck with the creek below. Watch horses graze in the neighboring pasture. Walk the creek taking in natures splendor. You might like to pan for gold or hunt for arrow heads in the creek! Hike the many trails nearby. You will especially want to visit Pickens Nose a rock outcrop on top of the mountain and stand at 5200 ft and look into the valley below. The Appalachian trail is nearby and water falls abound. Our area has been the setting for Hollywood movies too! The original "Fugitive" was filmed nearby. The train wreck is still visible too! "Deliverance", "Last of the Mohicans". Most recently "3 Bill Boards Outside Ebbing Missouri" to mention a few. If you are an antique motorcycle enthusiast you'll want to visit "Wheels Through Time" motorcycle museum showcased on TV as the show "What's in the barn". There's so much to see and do you won't want to leave! Motorcycles are welcome with easy access from highway. We have covered parking for motorcycles if needed. Also in the event of a motorcycle break down, we have a trailer setup for transporting large touring bikes and a good shop to take it to.

The Best Getaway!

This is my second time staying at this lovely vacation home. Joe is amazing as a host and just a lovely man. He gave us a great tour of the mountain and we had such a wonderful time, relaxing and enjoying the sounds of the creek and privacy. We’re already planning our next visit. If you wanna get away, this is a wonderful place to stay.

Wonderful!!

This was an amazing place to stay, I loved everything about it. The hosts were wonderful, everything was nice and clean, we had everything we needed there! It was also so nice to have the private creek and land to explore all to yourself! The view from the porch is the best thing to see when you wake up and before you go to bed. Would definitely love to stay there again! Highly recommend!

Very easy to get to (directions/roads) and easy to unload car and get settled. Food establishments close by. Just enjoyed sitting on the porch/deck and relaxing. Trails around the property and brook kept me entertained but not too much exercise so I came back home rested and relaxed. Accomodations were beautiful, clean, and restful. Hosts were great.

This place is AMAZING The hosts were very understanding of our need to be antisocial. we showed up, were greeted, they offered to help us settle in, we declined, they offered company, we declined, we didn't see them again until checkout. This place is beautiful and very quiet. Perfect place to relax and I genuinely don't think I could have found anywhere better ESPECIALLY for this price. They have a lovely selection of games/DVDs. Will definitely be coming back as soon as possible
